Part three of the Exodus
Not everyone stays in the basin. When I returned to downtown it cost me $1300 a month for a small 3-bedroom flat next to the freeway and with drug dealers downstairs.
I always thought Marin would be too expensive...but $1600 for a two bedroom flat on top of a mansion (The Citadel) is pretty affordible considering there is work here and the air you breath is not like snorting dehydrated onion soup.
It's actually heavy with moisture and hints of the ocean. Yet it is sunny and clear.
In Sacramento, when they get money, they move to the hills. This is a decent move, but in reality not much different than moving from the basin to the outer rim of the "bowl".
Cling as you may...you are still a part of the toxic mess that is.
more next...hey see above!
